It is the sixth album the US singer has achieved a UK number one with and she has reached the milestone faster than any other female artist.

Last week the song topped the UK chart for the first time 26 years after its release.

The song initially peaked at number two in 1994, missing out to East 17’s Stay Another Day, and the last three years have seen it return to match that original chart position.
